Red Brand’s FFA Sponsorship

70 years ago, Red Brand was a small, but quickly growing steel mill in Illinois. Our red-topped fence was gaining popularity with the American agriculture community. As a result, the company began to look for ways to give back to the families who trusted us for their animals’ protection. Red Brand quickly recognized the Future Farmers of America (FFA) as a good fit. That was because the organization was deeply invested in the future of agriculture. Through the support and nurturing of our nation’s youth, this commitment closely aligned with the goals set out by Red Brand. Thus began our proud history of FFA sponsorship.

With approximately 10,000 members in over 600 unique clubs and riding centers, Pony Club is a diverse, far-reaching member of America’s horse community. Since its beginning in 1954, the United States Pony Clubs, Inc. (USPC) has turned out some of the nation’s greatest horsemen and women.

Supporting FFA – Tomorrow’s Ag Leaders

Agriculture is more than an industry. It’s a lifestyle, a tradition, a discipline. At Red Brand, we believe in mentoring the next generation of agricultural professionals, because investing in them means investing in the future of the entire ag community. That’s why we are proud to partner with the National FFA Organization. By supporting this vital organization, we are helping to inspire and educate our future ag leaders.
